DOE sticks with dual contractor plan for Savannah River Site
DOE aims to have two contractors at SRS to handle liquid waste and other operations as safety remains the top priority. The Environmental Management Advisory Board met in Augusta to hear Assistant Energy Secretary James Rispoli state the plan despite a DNFSB report on lapses. Washington Savannah River Company’s contract extended to end of 2006, with bid competition expected against Parsons Fluor and others for both liquid waste and site operations.
